Fred Pohl has a Hugo

[julesjones]

A while back, there was this ripple of posts across sf blogland of posts that consisted of "Fred Pohl has a blog!", followed by comment threads consisting of variations on "squee!!!"

Not really a surprise then that he's just won this year's Hugo for Best Fanwriter. Not bad for a 90 year old. :-)

Jack Vance got the rocket for best non-fiction book, his autobiography which is arguably also fan writing of a sort and he's four years older than Fred.
